Thank you for sharing the Kentucky article. I had not heard of Kentucky's plans, but the scenario is something I have been contemplating for the past few months (my post from December 6 in another thread). Both houses of Kentucky's legislature are controlled by the Republicans (29-9 in the Senate and 75-25 in the House) so this measure should be popular and veto proof.
The Democratic governor has already seen a few vetoes overridden:

I can hear McConnell to his friends going: "I've got this thing, and it's fucking golden. I'm just not giving it up for fucking nothing."
